Asia Pacific Modeling Conference Set for April

Dec 01, 2009

MWH Soft, a global innovator of wet infrastructure modeling and simulation software and technologies, has opened registration and called for papers for the third annual Asia Pacific Water and Sewer Systems Modeling Conference.

The event will be held April 21-22, 2010, at Q1, the world’s tallest residential tower, on Australia’s Gold Coast.

This once-a-year learning opportunity is sponsored by many utilities in the region and will feature keynote presentations from leaders in hydraulic modeling throughout Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand. The conference also incorporates an annual gathering of MWH Soft software users and their managers who want to sharpen their skills, expand their knowledge, and share best practices with their peers. The ultimate goals are to design, operate and manage better systems, protect the environment, and safeguard public health.

The forum will allow water, wastewater and stormwater professionals to explore new ways of using engineering GIS technology and advanced network modeling, detailed pipeline design, and information management applications.

The co-chair of the organizing committee, Justin Hanson, Business Development director, Asia Pacific for MWH Soft, notes, “Potable drinking water and sanitary sewer systems are essential for a healthy and vibrant community. Proper management of water and wastewater assets plays a critical role in the provision of these vital services. This conference is a highly educational, significant and enjoyable event. I am confident that attendees will come away better positioned to provide their communities with safe drinking water and sanitary sewer systems.”
